Easter 2013

We are such adherents to tradition that one year looks much like the other; the kids just get a bit bigger. Nonetheless, it was a very nice Easter.

The Colvers were the first to dye eggs on Saturday

 Millie and Bea popped in to borrow a cheesecake recipe

 Dickie and Kris's eggs

 Max and Lizzie gave it try

 As did Meg and Ollie

Meagan introduced us to Kool-Aid dying

 The really intense colors were dyed in Kool-Aid!

 Meagan and Ollie finish up

 On Sunday afternoon, Katy and Daniel stopped by 
on their way home from church

 Lamb with mint sauce

 The conversation was no-holds-barred, as always
 At one point it drew tears of laughter

 Warm enough to eat outside, and Lizzie was mollified 
by the reinstalled railing

 The traditional Easter egg hunt was underway

3 found, 9 to go

 It made Meg very happy

 The last egg!

 The conversation moved outside

Considering some possible adventures for this 
week's Spring Break

There may or may not be a Spring-Break posting, but there will certainly be postings from Reno and San Francisco next week. That, however, is all for now.

I want to know the details of the no holds barred conversation. Although then again, maybe not.

Looks like a very nice day -- in so many ways!

Looks delightful. I'm especially jealous of the outdoor-appropriate weather.

So fun! Was the railing gone at some point? Why SF? When AZ?
Kook aid! Who knew!

Looks like a grand time. Andrew saw your tulips and thought you got them from us.
